January Wedding Update

Rather than bore the beejeebus out of you all with wedding post after wedding post I've decided to do a monthly update. Each month I'll post a few of the decisions we've made or are thinking about. Yay!




1. Photo booth props... because we are getting a photo booth!!! yayaayayaayayaa
2. White lanterns in the tree where we will get married
3. Vegetables as part of our center pieces on the tables. 
We can't have candles because our venue is heritage listed :( :( :(
Vegetables tie in well with the market gardens at the location.

What sort of center pieces did you have at your wedding?

Did you have a photo booth? Where did you get your props??!

New Goggles!!!!!!


I got new goggles the other day!
YAY!
I'm short AND long sighted in my left eye and short sighted in my right eye.
To be honest I'm not 100% sure what this means.
I didn't like any of the frames at OPSM so I bought these Elizabeth and James frames online from Shopbop.
You can find them here.

Here's a story.... 


I emailed shopbop and Elizabeth and James to find out if I could put my lenses in them. 
Customers on Shopbop asked in the review sections for other pairs if they could, Shopbop never replied to their queries.
Anyway I received 2 emails back.
Shopbop said NO and Elizabeth and James said YES. 
Being the kind customer I am I emailed Shopbop back to say they were wrong and suggested that maybe they update their website to let customers know they can put their prescription lenses in.
... they still haven't.

Bad form Shopbop, bad form.

On the plus side I only had to pay $30 for the lenses because my health insurance covered the rest, yayayayayayayayaaaaa.


Do you wear glasses? 
Where do you get your frames from and how often do you change them?

Strictly Confidential Roxy Jacenko yaaayaayayayayaa

Hello Peeps!


I've made it my mission to read more this year, my aim is for a book a fortnight - ish. 
So far I've read 2 books.
I'm pretty much on track yayaayyayaaaaa.



This little number was bought from here. 
After reading SO much about it on Twitter I had to get my paws onto it and see what the fuss was all about for myself.


I loved it, LOVED it. 
Ladies, if you're after something light, fun, witty, FULL of shameless faboosh-make-you-smile fashion and gossip then read this book. 
Strictly Confidential is written by the Public Relations guru herself, the founder of Sweaty Betty PR, Roxy Jacenko. 
I die for Roxy, DIE. 
Do you have Sweaty Betty PR on Twitter?!! You're cray cray if you don't because they put up the best photos, find them here.

Anyhoo, Strictly Confidential follows the enigmatic Jazzy Lou through the trials and tribulations of the fast paced world of public relations.
This book is so much fun, I can't recommend it enough. 
Picture yourself reading it while you're at the salon or catching some rays. 
Perfection.


Have you read Strictly Confidential?
What books have you read so far this year?

Nat and Mez's arm candy, Mez's photo is so bbllurryyy - I'd had a couple of wines by then. Don't judge!



Beautiful Holly pondering over the menu... Eating shit loads of El Yucateco on her corn chips and by shit loads I mean she practically gave me a heart attack when she poured it on.....

She asked me if I managed to get them in the photo, I said NO then came home to this surprise.
She will be happy.
